Sony A7R V
Discover the evolution of resolution with the Sony A7R V. This full-frame mirrorless camera with 61 megapixels offers incredible AI-based autofocus and blazing-fast processing thanks to the latest BIONZ XR. Shoot video in 8K and say goodbye to camera shake with the improved 8-stop image stabilisation.
AI-powered Autofocus
Track your subjects more accurately, faster, and more consistently with real-time AI-based autofocus across 693 autofocus points. This advanced technology provides a unique and effortless shooting experience by predicting what your subject is about to do. Even in challenging conditions, you'll capture sharp photos and videos. A new and unique feature is real-time autofocus tracking for not only people and animals, but also birds, insects, cars, trains, and aeroplanes. Whatever you photograph, you'll never end up with an out-of-focus shot again!
Stunning Detail
Enjoy beautiful detail and accurate colours even in difficult lighting, thanks to the powerful full-frame 61 MP sensor and BIONZ XR image processor. With the impressive buffer, you can shoot at 10 fps in burst mode — 88 shots in uncompressed RAW, 184 shots in compressed RAW, and even more than 1,000 shots in JPEG. Looking for even more detail in your images? Discover the new Pixel Shift shooting mode for highly detailed images of up to 240 megapixels. Love heading out to photograph wildlife? Use the APS-C crop mode for greater reach and optimal image quality at 26 MP.
8K and 4K60P Video Recording
Sony has also thought of photographers who love shooting video — film in 8K and 4K, take advantage of 10-bit 4:2:2 recording, and choose from a range of picture profiles including S-Cinetone and S-LOG. Overheating is no longer a concern; thanks to the heat transfer system, you can record for extended periods. You'll also find a full-size HDMI port on the body, along with active focus compensation and internal 8-stop image stabilisation. This makes the A7R V a true hybrid camera.
Built for Professionals
The A7R V features a unique 4-axis tilting touchscreen that allows you to fully tilt and flip the display. The camera also includes an electronic OLED Quad-XGA viewfinder with a resolution of 9.44 million dots. In terms of file formats, the A7R V gives you even more choice: alongside JPEG, uncompressed RAW, and compressed RAW, you can now also opt for lossless RAW. This format delivers files that are 50 to 80% smaller at 26 MP, with no loss of data. Finally, the robust aluminium body and shutter — carried over from the Sony A1 — make the A7R V a truly solid foundation for photographers and videographers who want to take their work to the next level.
Ultra-fast Transfer and Connectivity
Sony has taken a significant step forward with the A7R V in terms of connectivity and data transfer. Enjoy lightning-fast Wi-Fi transfer at 2.4 GHz/5 GHz and a SuperSpeed USB-C connection at 10 Gbps for faster remote control or content transfer. Of course, the body also features two card slots, supporting both CFexpress Type A and SD cards.
Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM II
The Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM II is a wide angle lens with an extremely fast autofocus, specifically designed for the full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless camera. Thanks to Sony's use of various advanced lens technologies, you can expect exceptional sharpness. The lens features no fewer than four aspherical elements, including three XA glass elements and several ED glass elements, delivering optimal resolution across the entire zoom range. The lens elements are also finished with a coating to reduce internal reflections, significantly improving clarity and contrast for even sharper images. The front lens element features a fluorine coating, making it more resistant to dust and grease.
With eleven aperture blades, the aperture opening of the Sony FE 16-35mm GM II is virtually perfectly circular. This means subjects in the foreground are pin-sharp, while you can create a beautiful bokeh effect in the background. The lens features no fewer than four XD linear motors, ensuring that the Next-Gen AF is not only super fast, but also highly precise and extremely quiet. It's also possible to shoot at up to 30 fps in burst mode, so you'll never miss a moment. With a minimum focusing distance of just 22 centimetres and a magnification ratio of 0.32x, you can capture stunning close-ups, while wide sweeping shots are equally no problem at all.
The biggest differences compared to its predecessor are the outstanding image quality in the corners, the improved autofocus, the optimised image stabilisation, and the addition of an aperture click-switch. Also notable is the smaller size and reduced weight — the lens weighs a full 20% less than the Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM. At just 547 grams, it's a versatile choice for a wide range of photo and video applications, including landscapes, portraits, travel, and night photography. The 16-35mm f/2.8 GM II is exceptionally well suited to video recording, with a burst mode of 120 fps and minimal focus breathing — another welcome improvement over the 16-35mm f/2.8 GM.
The addition of a coating significantly reduces chromatic aberration, lens flare, and ghosting. The lens is also dust and moisture resistant, so you can keep shooting in extreme weather conditions without worry. With a maximum aperture of f/2.8 and minimal noise, this lens also performs excellently in low-light situations. All of this makes the Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM II a true all-rounder.
